WHO: Everyone who wants to drown their sorrows or something
WHAT: Getting drunk about it
WHERE: The Spider-Web
WHEN: Today

Sure waking up to find that he was for some reason attached to a wizard nearly half his age hadn't been on the top ten best ways to start his day list that Peter most certainly did not keep somewhere in the back of his mind, it hadn't actually been on the top ten worst ways to start his day list either. So that was something to consider. Not that it made it any easier to deal with knowing that for some strange reason he found himself tethered to Sirius, things had gotten very strange very quickly, and considering his history with strange well - Peter thought he was handling the whole thing admirably.

Tonight though, well they were at the bar, because even tied together like this people still needed to eat and Peter wasn't about to just throw all of this away because he was mildly inconvenienced. So he was doing his best, passing out drinks and making food and hoping that at the very least, they could all just spend a little time there that evening and pretend like things weren't entirely fucked.

"Nothing like a couple of drinks and something good to eat to at least help make you feel like things aren't quite as bad as they might seem." And certainly he'd lucked out he thought, but like John had said, things could always be worse.

If nothing else, this whole experience was a reminder of how much she enjoyed her life in town and doing the things she was doing before. Spending time with her best friend, getting the Basic White Girl special at COFFEE everyday, tinkering around in the workshop with Tony, learning how to hit punching bags properly with Steve. Family dinners. Drum sessions. Pizza with Peter B. She had to compromise on those things now. And it wasn't even that she thought Bill would tell her she couldn't do any or all of those things because he was really nice. She just couldn't expect that she could, and they had to meet in the middle. That was how everyone was coping with this new situation, it seemed.

It definitely had to sort out. Most turn of events type situations around this place weren't permanent. She'd been a child for a while and then grew back up. Surely she'd wake up one morning and Bill would be back in his own house and everything would be back to the way it was.

"I was hoping you'd say that," she said with a grin. "Make me whatever you're having. We'll toast to things sorting out."

Hopefully their views were optimistic as opposed to naive. Sirius was meant to know better -- at least based on the future that he hadn't yet lived, to know that all things didn't always end up any kind of good just because he wanted them to. But this didn't seem like too much to ask for and they had proof that things had been normal in the past.

So.

Well. They'd get where they wanted to be eventually, Sirius was sure of it.

"On Sirius Special, coming right up," he grinned, waggling his wand in the direction of the bar. Sirius was a fine bartender.
